Hi Randy, I have checked for blockages , checked igniter and checked the venting for blockage all 3 are fine. What else could it be for lockout due to failed ignition? Thank you for the videos
Thank you for this video. I just finished replacing my inducer motor and everything works great now. I'll keep the old one as a spare and see if I can do some maintenance on it.
I was trying to help troubleshoot a friends furnace last night. Had flame, blower on, but no heat, solid red light on control board. I do remember not having continuity on igniter(other video called this flame sensor), but wasn't sure if closed when it warmed or something. I think this is the fix though. Going to buy one and swap it. Thanks for the video! *Edited to say I got it fixed! Lol, it wasn't the ignitor. It was actually a spider web in the orifice, exactly like in your other video. I wouldn't have known to check that if I hadn't been looking through your videos. Thanks again man.
Heck ya, I actually didn't know shark bites were the same as quick connect for air lines. I've done this for air lines that didn't want to release, but thought shark bites were more permanent somehow, lol. Thanks!
Thank you for the video! Laminate flooring for the window trim is a great idea! I am searching for how I do the outside of the window. We will be replacing siding after we replace windows. Should I need to cut back any of the old siding? I don't even know where to start. lol
Thank you so much, very easy instructions man! Also love the fact you gave us those 2 options on the different type of levers/furnaces...I saved this video just incase I ever have trouble lighting my pilot, thanks again!
My rough opening is so narrow (interior) I can’t find any advice! I’m gonna have to use two pieces of lattice wood and Brad nail them directly to the opening to make a jamb! I know this is wrong but what else can I do?
Hi Randy, I have a leak on a pipe under the mobile home going to the second bathroom (can’t tell yet if it’s shower or toilet/faucet). Do you know where a shutoff valve would be maybe under the house to prevent water from going to this section? Have to shut off water to the entire mobile home to stop it unless I find a specific valve. Shutting off faucet/toilet doesn’t stop the leak from continuing under the house
It makes me sad that someone has to leave their mobile home exterior in a deteriorated condition because they don't have the money. Probably spent everything they had on replacing the skirting. Thank you for doing such a tremendously nice job on installing the skirting. I hope that every time they look at it, they'll feel a lot more pride in their home.
It's 2024 and our bathtub broke right as my oldest finished his shower, which was excellent timing. However we live in a very old trailer so we cannot afford a pro. Thank you so much! Lol your video is very helpful.
Did you say anything about the window opening dimensions? Was it 46x54 and you put in 2 single hung windows to replace 1 MH window? Thats what it looks like.
When I turn my water off at the main water cut off the water still comes out of the faucet, I forgot and left something soaking in the tub and when I went back my tub was had overflowed and it was water everywhere, I had to pull out the carpet in the hallway, and 2 bedrooms.
